So far, so good. The only “gotcha” is that we’ve been trying to capture a feral cat in the backyard, and Steven has been bringing the trap inside at around 5 PM so we wouldn’t get any skunks by mistake. Late this afternoon, I saw some activity in the cage (which we covered with towels so it wouldn’t look like a cage to the cat), and called Steven to calm the cat down and give it some water. About 45 seconds later, I see him in the back with the towels off the cage and staring at a very surprised baby skunk! Sure enough, it was around 7 PM and he had gotten so engrossed in Harry Potter that he had forgotten about the cage.
